Patent EP-0933173-A3 (EP)
Inventor: EKLUND TORE
IPC: B26D7/06
Filed: 1998-09-14
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and a device for synchronised feeding
of food products, to a downstream processing device. The method comprises the
steps of arranging the product to be fed on a slidable product carriage, which
carriage is arranged on slide rails for sliding motion thereupon, in a feed direction
M, and positioning the carriage in an initial position remote from that end
to which the products are to be fed. The method is characterised by the step of
driving at least one feed member in a reciprocating motion, in synchronisation
with the operating cycle of the processing device, said slidable carriage being
brought along, optionally, in said motion in the feed direction M, by bringing at
least one locking member arranged on the slidable carriage into locking engagement
with the feed member when said member is moved forward in the
feed direction, said locking member being released from its locking engagement
when said feed member is moved backwards against the feed direction. The device
comprises a frame, a pair of parallel slide rails 8 on which a slidable carriage
3 is arranged for sliding forwardly feeding motion. It is characterised by a
feed member which performs a reciprocating motion in synchronisation with
the operating cycle of the processing device for related forward feeding of the
slidable carriage 3, by locking member 2 provided on the carriage, with associated
actuators for locking engagement with the feed member and an element
which is fixed in relation to the frame respectively, and spring means biasing
the feed member in the feed direction M.
Patent EP-0936637-A3 (EP)
Inventor: HALLER HANS-OTTO
IPC: H01F27/32
Filed: 1999-02-02
Abstract: The invention specifies a compact, planar
transformer comprising a core (K1, K2) and a primary
winding (W1) and at least one secondary winding (W2),
which are arranged as conductors on one or more layers of
a flat carrier, and which transformer comprises a coil
former with a chamber system having chambers (C1, C2),
which accommodate the layers with the windings (W1, W2).
At least one of the chambers (C1, C2) is closed at least
in regions, with the result that long distances for
creepage paths are obtained. As a result of this, it is
possible to adhere to existing safety regulations for the
mains power supply isolation even with very compact
dimensions and/or with full utilization of the width
available for the conductor tracks. The chamber system
can be formed from two or three plastic parts (P1, P2,
P3) by mating. The layers with the conductor tracks are
routed laterally out of the chamber system in order to
make contact with terminals. In an advantageous
refinement, webs with metallized slots are arranged on
walls of the chamber system, in order to make contact
with the conductor tracks (L). The slots are, for
example, notched or trough-shaped depressions in which
the carrier layers latch into place and are held thereby.
The electrical contact afforded by the slots can be
additionally supported by a solder-paste application with
subsequent soldering. The lateral contacts mean that
plated-through holes are avoided in the case of the
carrier layers, with the result that the latter can be
produced significantly more inexpensively. By virtue of
the chamber system, it is possible for the openings in a
core, for example an E/E or E/I core, to be utilized
significantly better if the transformer has to comply
with a sufficient insulation strength, such as in the
case of mains power supply isolation, for example.
Applications emerge, in particular, for switched-mode
power supplies with high switching frequencies, for 
example for resonant converters having switching
frequencies of more than 100 kHz.

Abstract: A method and corresponding apparatus for re-establishing a
communication in a wireless communication system is disdosed. A
serving base-station (32) detects that a synchronization with a mobile
station (38) has been lost and chooses a target base-station (34) to attempt
to establish synchronization with the mobile station (38). If
synchronization is established, the communication with the mobile station
(38) is re-established by the target base-station (34). The method and
corresponding apparatus does not require any handoff-related signaling
to the mobile station (38) to essentially affect a communication handoff
from the serving base-station (32) to the target base-station (34).

Abstract: An exhaust gas oxygen sensor (10) mounted in the
exhaust stream of an engine includes a zirconia plate (14)
mounted to two electrodes (16,18), covered with porous
layers (20,22). The two porous layers (20,22) are designed

without the need for a voltage source pumping oxygen through
the sensor. A heating element (60) can be used with the
sensor to reduce the light-off time of the sensor. Also, a
latch 52 can be used to modify the signal from the sensor to
